Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

As soon as he got out of the carriage, cold air pierced his skin, and Shiori accidentally choked his neck.

(I don't know what it's like to sleep outside in this cold...)

It's cold enough to think about it, even though I'm going to do such a job right now. Still, besides the Beast Crusade, I'm afraid that research, gathering, and even a few escort requests for hobbies won't stop even in the winter, and they'll be accepted normally.

Alec was just a little reluctant to show it, so it's not uncommon in snowy countries around the world. Still, I was quite surprised when I started working as an adventurer. The people of Snowland are successful. They also have a lot of equipment and tools for winter adventures.

"Here? Specify the location."

Alec dropped off the carriage and looked up at the hotel designated as the rendezvous point, without telling anyone. Probably the finest inn in the town of Silveria. It's not gorgeous, but it's a small, elegant look with a deep red triangle roof on the white wall.

As he entered the lobby, an old gentleman with a soft look met with a soft smile. Looks like the manager of the inn.

"I'm from the Tris branch of the Adventurers Association. I'm here at the behest of His Highness Annelier Rovnell. Are you sure you want to stay here?

Alec, the delegate, told him his name and business, and he immediately took him to his client's waiting room. The manager shouted across the door.

"Dear Mr. Robnell, I can see the customer."

After a little, I heard a faint noise and a voice. Then the door was carefully opened and the young man's face peered from inside. Remember, the orange red hair reminded Zack of his grass eyes, but his nervous expression and alert eyes gave him the opposite impression. The man quickly ran his gaze to us, then finally stopped his eyes at Shiori and distorted his expression in an uncomfortable manner.

(Wow. I haven't seen it in a long time. (Such a reaction)

Do you dislike immigrants or are you alert to Oriental women who clearly look different from them? Stridia is quite tolerant of foreigners, either because she accepts a lot of immigrants. Nevertheless, it seems that the story is different when it comes to Orientals with or without a few people in King's City. When I first started looking for a job in Tris, I had to get paid several times for similar reactions. Although the most blatant reactions so far are rare, they mostly end up being observed rarely.

The man checked the requisition and the contract from Alec and urged him to go inside. But when Theori tried to get in, they stopped him.

"I can't let Annelier meet strangers I don't know. I want you to take it back."

(It's so brilliant, so obvious!!)

Still, did you nominate yourself without knowing that you were an Inhuman?

"I asked you because you nominated me, is that okay?

"... so the rumored housekeeper is talking about you? I heard you had slime with you, but I didn't know you were an Inhuman. If I'd known, I wouldn't have nominated you."

Apparently, he didn't really know.

(Insufficient research... maybe there's something wrong with your preparation.)

Even though he is used to not hiding his discomfort, it still doesn't feel good, but he doesn't realize that he has made every effort to appeal to the lack of investigation. His attitude also looks funny. Remembering Zack's words, "There may be deficiencies in preparation," Theori smiled secretly.

But Alec and the others weren't funny.

"It would be too rude of you to take the trouble to nominate and call me back."

"I'm sorry, but adventurers are a sort of human gathering. It will be difficult to secure personnel at any branch if there are more than one person who is uncertain and satisfies your desired conditions."

"If the Inhumans are no good, I have no choice but to be rude here. After all, the Inhumans are in front of the building, don't they just dislike the Orientals?"

The companions revealed their discomfort and Louis began to move nervously at their feet. I'm glad you're covering for me, but I also have a problem with my client. We try our best, but we also struggle to reduce customer satisfaction. In some cases, it may really be better to go home as the man says. When I started thinking like that, I heard a humorous voice from the back of the room.

"- Dennis. Are you trying to humiliate me? They're right. It's too rude of you to call me and pay me in advance. You said you didn't need me, but you said you couldn't. Please come in quickly."

"But Dear Annelier,"

The man called Dennis said something, but the platinum blonde woman, who seemed to be his master, stared at him with her pale eyes. The woman in her mid-twenties also has a slightly different appearance to express as a beautiful woman, but her neatly stretched and beautiful appearance and neat and dazzling expression make her feel somewhat beautiful. I wonder if the atmosphere is beautiful. Staring at her with a sense of intimidation characteristic of those who stood above him, Dennis choked.

"The territory of Triswal is a particularly exotic part of the country. Most of them were immigrants who moved to our country because of unforeseen circumstances. Are you challenging the immigration policy that the Royal Family is taking the lead on?

It seems that Dennis has no choice but to remain silent. He pushed Shiori into the room, even though he was reluctant. When I bowed to him, I turned my gaze slightly awkward. It's a little payback to thank him for losing his gratitude, but you won't be blamed for this much.

"I'm sorry, magician. I've done a lot of disrespect."

"No, please don't worry about your safety."

... in the past, some of the Servitors abducted themselves just as much as they wanted to keep us safe. With that in mind, I tried to forget my unpleasant feelings.

The Countess invited herself into the reception hall, and another waitress smiled cheerfully and interpreted. Dennis is quite the opposite. Sitting down on a comfortable bench, encouraged by Annelier, the cheerful servants recommended fragrant tea and tea treats. Incidentally, Dennis took a slightly diagonal stance behind Annelier and turned his back on the top of the Buddha.

(... you're an easy-to-understand person)

I just showed discomfort towards the face, but somehow I felt something I didn't hate. Perhaps she's not that bad around the pleasant countess.

Well, I'd like to talk to you about the request as soon as possible, but may I?

After a brief introduction to each other, Annelier, sitting across the street, gracefully paired her stretched legs and smiled. A lady of nobility tends to have a gorgeous impression, but she is a good tailored yet simple dress. is wearing a comfortable cotton shirt, loose trousers in olive colour that are less visible from dirt, and low heel boots. It seems true that I am accustomed to travelling.

"I'm sure you've heard it already, but there's a view I'd really like to see in the subject of the new painting. I'm well aware of the dangers."

The view can only be seen during the snowy season from the top floor of the Silveria Tower. Still, as the day progressed and snow deepened, I decided that it would be too annoying to say how much money I would hire, so I asked for it at this time when I could go back and forth on foot as much as possible.

"Actually, I've been wanting to come for years. But you can't forgive me because some stone head is dangerous."

Some kind of stonehead. I turned my gaze towards Dennis from nobody. The Annelier and the other Servant, of course.

"Of course. Whatever the reason for the painting, we can't let you go where you know it's dangerous. Besides, you can't let them stay in the snow."

Dennis said that side by side, but to be clear, he was right. There is a problem with the overt attitude, but what the Inhumans said earlier is that they think of the Lord correctly.

... I'm not feeling well.

"... that's why. But recently, I heard that there was a magician with a reputation who would make it very comfortable at the winter camp, so Stone finally agreed to it."

"I can't believe it!"

With all that noise, Dennis, who called himself an immigrant, jumped up and distorted his face. Looking at him, Annelier stepped on his feet with all his heart. Alec and Clement twitched their faces as they stepped on their feet with their heels, and Nadia and the other servant - apparently Balt - laughed loudly.

As Annelier retreated from her feet, Dennis moved her feet upright as if nothing had happened to her. However, it seems that the foot that was being stepped on was trembling little by little when it was sifted, and it was quite painful.

"... what is this subordinate control?

"- What?

Unexpectedly murmuring at a series of communal outbursts, Alec answered, but Annelier appeared to keep talking and corrected her posture.

"I heard that you can have a warm meal in the snow, sleep in a warm place, and take a bath. Is that true?

"Yes, it is difficult in places where there are many metels of snow in the boulder, but it is sufficient if it is about one to two metels. I also dry my hair so that it doesn't cool down, so I can wash my hair. I can also do laundry if you want."

"Wonderful. It's like a dream."

"... I'm sorry."

Dennis is as dissatisfied as ever, but Annelier and Balt seem full of expectations and curiosity. I secretly felt obliged to do my best not to betray my expectations.

Afterwards, Alec briefly communicates the adventure's precautions. The job is nominated by Ciori, but if you work with him, it would be better if Alec, a veteran, could handle this kind of explanation and negotiation.

"... according to Guild policy, basically what you get during an adventure will be picked up here. However, I would like to discuss the expensive product with my client and consider how to handle it. If you need anything else, don't hesitate to ask."

"Yes, I understand."

"- So, when do we leave?

In response to Alec's question, Annelier looked at the two servants and continued to talk as they nodded.

"I just want to say I can do it right now, but I'm going to stop. Should I leave tomorrow morning? Maybe you're familiar with the itinerary, so I'll leave everything to you to set your departure time and break."

"Thank you for letting me do that. Then let's set a specific date by dinner. Can you tell me a little bit about your journey?

"Yes, I understand."

"Oh, and then..."

Alec glances at us and looks back at his client again.

"I'm sorry, but just in case, I'd like to check your equipment. Ciori, Nadia. Can you take a look?"

I've been worried about Zach since I spoke to him, but it seems he was the same. However, Dennis quickly bit into Alec's words.

"Then I should have told Zach. I am used to outdoor activities. There are no deficiencies in the preparation."

"I'm sorry, it's union policy. In winter outdoor escort requests, any client is required to check all equipment before departure. Especially outdoor activities that require camping can be life-threatening even with minor deficiencies. The items included in the contract... didn't you see them at the time of contract? I'm sure Zach explained it to you."

The last word will be expected to stop for Dennis. Sure enough, he shouted a strange moan from the back of his throat.

"― Many people are somewhat more accustomed to traveling in distress in outdoor activities than beginners. Moreover, most of the distress areas are not steep places like high mountains or deep woods, but lowlands and close to people. Do you know why?

"... no..."

"You're careless. The biggest factor is carelessness. Many people have experience licking it for reasons such as alarm coming from familiarity or proximity to people, and going out without adequate preparation and in distress. The mortality rate jumps sharply, especially in winter. So I want you to understand. No matter how much you serve your purpose, there's no point in going home alive. If there are no defects after checking the equipment, that's fine, and if there are defects, you can buy enough before you leave. If the survival rate goes up in just a little bit of trouble, wouldn't it be better than that?

Annelier, who was observing the series of errands in silence, laughed lightly.

"Alec is right. Please check the shipment."

"... okay."

He seemed to have high pride and tended to look down on adventurers and exotics, but he wasn't as stupid as he sounded. When Dennis listened carefully, he dropped his shoulders and showed them.
